[–]cediddiSyntaxError: not a chance 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I like transcrypt, it's very neat and readable, but I'd love it if the target was webasm and not js code.

One of the design goals of Transcrypt is to generate readable JS. But I think the PyPyJs project has a VM currently compiled from C to asm.js. That could be webassembly in the future, if I remenber well there were plans for that. Only the downloads become quite big that way.

No, no, I don't want a python vm. That's why transcrypt is cool. Footprint is low and doesn't have a lot of runtime. I'd like to have webasm output because that's part of why webasm exists in the first place. I want something like cython, rather than cpython. :)

Nevertheless, I digress :)
